Never Wanted To Say Bye

My parents are gone. I’m here standing at there gravestones. I had to wake up a dawn, Just to watch tears fall down my cheekbones. To listen to them speak, And to act like I don’t miss them. But the truth is I’m just weak, And I can’t go back to how things have been. The waves of emotion swung over me, And the pain was very clear. I wish I didn’t let this be, I just wish they were here. How can I ever fill the hole, That is now in my heart? What will happen to my soul, which is now broken into parts. Please mom and dad, Just give me a sign. I’m really just so sad. I never wanted to say goodbye.
